Movie Reviews of Bend of the River
Movie Review: This is a decent western but it's not great.
Summary: 3 Stars
I would say it's good or about average. There is some good scenery and it isn't slow. It just doesn't have a lot of punch as far as I'm concerned.Movie Review: Good movie ... worst DVD EVER
Summary: 2 Stars
I would like to echo the other reviews here ... Universal has done an incredibly shoddy job on this DVD. The film is a good one ... not as good as The Far Country, but a respectable and enjoyable Western by the reliable Anthony Mann. The picture quality is often poor, and why the movie had to be panned and scanned when it was not widescreen to begin with is beyond me. Cost can't be an excuse ... the Hammer DVD's of The Curse of Frankenstein and The Horror of Dracula by other studios were similarly priced yet far better in quality. Universal should be ashamed of issuing a classic Western in this condition. I want my money back!Movie Review: Great movie, but a sorry DVD release

Hey, all you DVD video lovers out there... why do buy DVD's to replace all our old VHS tapes? RIGHT! Extra features, restored prints, widescreen format. When will the studio money grubbers realize that releasing cheap, no thrills versions of our favorite classic movies is NOT the way to sell DVD's? "Bend of the River" is a classic western and has always been one of my favorite films, but please don't waste your $ on this one. Wait for a truly proper release, not this cheap pan and scan, no features version. What a waste. Ditto for other recent Jimmy Stewart (equally no feature pan and scan) DVD releases of "The Far Country", "Destry Rides Again" and "Shenandoah".Movie = 5 stars
DVD = 1 sorry star
Movie Review: not a review, but a question

I put this DVD in my player and was greeted with a screen I'd never seen before - a request for a password! Has anyone else encountered this error, or have a way to bypass this screen and go to the menu or movie?Pay no attention to my star rating for the movie, as I haven't had a chance to watch it yet!
